RIM has been known to make multiple versions of internal development devices and the Canadian firm quickly pulled the image.

Speculation raged and questions were asked so RIM responded. Via its Twitter account, RIM says that there will be a "minor hardware bump" made to the Dev Alpha model in what it calls "a normal part of any pre-release programme"

The updated version is supposedly called the Dev Alpha B and RIM has confirmed that it will be giving updated version of the phone prior to the BB10 launch. And online sources are reporting that will happen at an in-house developer event held by BlackBerry that will take place September 25-27 in San Jose, California.
